Sometimes you need a little extra money, but what you don't need is another boss, a second shift, or a business plan you'll never finish. In this episode, we're walking through some of the most overlooked ways to earn extra income. Everything from plasma donation, junk hauling, voiceovers, waiting in line, and a few others I can't put in the description without attracting a bunch of bots. We're challenging the idea that income only comes from jobs. We talk about the emotional (and sometimes physical) tradeoffs, how to spot seasonal bonuses and low-competition opportunities, and why the best side hustles don't always look like work.These are the kind of gigs that don't require a résumé or a 5-year commitment, just a willingness to try something different. Whether you're saving for a trip, refilling your emergency fund, or just need to solve a $500 problem fast, there's something in here for you.In this episode, we cover:Why so many people default to getting another job and what to try insteadThe emotional cost of “just one more shift” when you're already stretched thinHow overlooked, seasonal, or location-based gigs can fill a short-term income gapThe surprising ways people are using their bodies, tools, and free time to get paidWhat makes a side hustle worth doing without turning into a second careerHow to think creatively about short bursts of work that solve real-life money problems Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.

Send us a textGreg's journey isn't your typical athlete-to-executive story. This is about what happens when you walk away from elite sport cold turkey (for 10 years), then suddenly find yourself pulled back in – while building a career, starting a family, and even stepping into a boxing ring.In this episode, we get raw about:That moment a 24-hour bus ride revealed his untapped swimming potentialWhy he took a demolition job after retiring from international competitionThe $35,000 mindset shift he wished he'd had earlierHow getting knocked out in business (figuratively) prepared him for getting in the ring (literally)Why "perfect practice makes perfect" applies to spreadsheets just as much as sprintsKey Moments You Can't Miss:1. The Unconventional ComebackWhy returning to elite swimming at 35 with three kids was harder (and more rewarding) than his first careerHow shaving 0.6 seconds became an obsession – and what that teaches us about incremental business growth2. Career Transition Truth Bombs"I didn't want to be 28 trying to start a career" – the harsh reality of post-sport timingHis biggest regret? Not leveraging his athletic network sooner (and how to avoid this mistake)3. The Anchor Words That Changed EverythingDiscover the 3-word performance framework Greg uses for:Racing 100m butterflyLeading multi-million dollar dealsParenting three kids under 104. When the Goggles Come Off For GoodWhy COVID wasn't actually what ended his second swimming career – it was something far more relatableWhy This Hits Different:This isn't another "transferable skills" lecture. It's the unfiltered story of an athlete who:➜ Walked away completely (twice)➜ Found success in finance without playing the "former swimmer" card➜ Proves high performance isn't about constant grind – it's about strategic comebacks"The pool taught me that failure isn't falling short – it's not showing up prepared. That lesson alone built my entire career."Listen Now If:You've ever felt "too old" to pivotYou're struggling to translate competitive fire into career fuelYou want proof that work-life balance IS possible for type-A personalitiesReady to explore your own second act after sport?

134 years. That's how long it will take to reach gender parity.So what's holding women back at work? And more importantly -- what can we do about it? That's exactly what we're diving into today.I grew up in the '80s -- the decade of big hair, power suits and Working Girl. A time when women were independent and ambitious. To me, women had ALWAYS been successful at work -- and anything I wanted to achieve in my career was possible.Yet when I entered the workforce (big hair still in tow!), I found workplaces built on traditional systems where men held the power. The corporate environments I worked in encouraged healthy competition and rewarded high performance. As I watched the women around me adapt to these systems, I did the same. From my 20's, the message was clear: To succeed as a woman, I had to be confident, competitive -- even aggressive.Fast forward two decades and workplaces have evolved. We've seen a shift towards equal pay, diversity initiatives and more women in leadership. After 17 years supporting people in their careers, I'm in awe of how far we've come.But progress isn't happening fast enough.

She discusses the importance of recognizing when work environments no longer serve us, the power of taking calculated risks, and how sharing our authentic stories can create deeper connections in our professional lives.In This Episode, You'll Learn:How to recognize when your career needs a pivot and strategies for making bold transitionsWhy authentic storytelling can be a powerful tool for building professional connectionsThe importance of viewing work relationships as mutually beneficial transactionsWays to reframe resilience and set healthy boundaries in your careerHow generational perspectives influence our relationship with workQuotable Moment:"Work is inherently transactional... if you're just giving, you're empty. It's about reconfronting that transaction and making sure that you're getting as much as you're giving." - Faye McCrayPractical Takeaway:When considering career changes or feeling burnt out, ask yourself "What if it all works out?" instead of catastrophizing. Take inventory of your skills, savings, and support system. Remember that your work should nourish you, not just drain you - and it's okay to make changes when that balance isn't right.Resources Mentioned:"What If It All Works Out?"

Kapil Chopra, the founder and CEO of Postcard Hotels told me the following statistics.Of the 10 million foreign tourists who visit India each year, roughly 10% - one million - are classified as luxury. “So we've kind of made entire Rajasthan and Kerala as two big sectors for one million tourists,” he said.In comparison domestic trips made by Indians was around 2.3 billion a year, a few years ago. Even if just 1% of those could be upgraded to luxury travel, that's 23 million.Chopra wants to make that happen with Postcard Hotels, his luxury boutique hotel chain. Launched in 2018 with 3 hotels, it has 9 today, and 23 in the works. He wants them all to be in what he calls the “transformational” category. What's that you ask?The first level is commodity. A bed, an air conditioner and a bathroom.The second level represent hotels that offer differentiated “products”.The third level are the luxury hotels come, differentiated by exceptional service.The fourth level is experiential. It's what Airbnb does when it offers you the ability to stay in Paris at a place that overlooks the Eiffel Tower.The fifth level is for “transformative experiences”.“When you combine all of them. If you're able to give a good product, great world class service, great experiential experiences, soak in the destination. If you add all of this together, it becomes transformational,” says Chopra.He lists three luxury hotel brands in the fifth category – Aman Resorts, Six Senses and One & Only.“And I looked at them and said, what is common? They were all founder-led. And the founders were amazing. But the founders all lost control of the brands they had built,” he says.Kapil Chopra doesn't want to join that group.Kapil also has strong opinions on why he believes the luxury hotel business has become sterile and unexciting over the years, and how Postcard is changing that image. Apart from Postcard, Kapil Chopra is also the founder of the table reservation service, discovery and payment platform, EazyDiner.Over the course of our conversation he also talks about:How luxury travel and travelers are evolving in IndiaWhy did he choose to leave the Oberoi Group at the height of his careerHow he's become calmer after starting Postcard HotelsHow he's doing fundraising, investments and expansion in way that doesn't endanger the parent companyWhy ESOPs and wealth creation needs to be more prevalent in the hospitality and travel industriesWelcome to First Principles–The weekly leadership podcast from The Ken.Let's get started.____________________If you love listening to First Principles we're sure you will enjoy reading our Sunday newsletter aptly titled First Principles as well.

Most coaches don't set out to be coaches.

Whatever your coaching role now and wherever you aspire to go in the future, you'll find today's interview to be helpful and informative. Join us!Susan Daniel is a devoted talent development professional who is committed to unlocking the potential of individuals, teams, and organizations.

She excels in designing, managing, and coaching various leadership and team development programs, all aimed at enriching personal and organizational effectiveness.
